About This File
This is a simple mod that uses the stock F-15EX external model and F-15C cockpit/avionics + custom .LUA files to create a stand-in flyable F-15EX Eagle II. This mod has come a long way since I first took it over from KNNZubr, and now includes a limited air to ground capability with unguided bombs, rockets, and the AGM-88F HSCM (HARM Control Section Modification). AMBER racks have been added with version 1.5, plus AIM-120C-7 AMRAAM and outer wing hardpoints for up to 20 AAMs.
Installation: Just extract the .7z file and drop it into Saved Games/DCS/mods/aircraft (or Saved Games/DCS.openbeta/mods/aircraft depending on which version you have). This mod has been tested with DCS 2.8 latest open beta as of 12/27/22.
Known issues: The F-15E external model is used, which is not accurate (wrong cockpit and engine nozzles plus lack of fairings on the sides of the cockpit for what is likely some sort of missile warning system. The F-15C cockpit is still used, pending development of a custom cockpit.
